Room 48: Contemporary
The Porter Gallery
Situated next to the V&A's Grand Entrance, the Porter Gallery houses temporary displays featuring contemporary art and design. Exhibitions have included 'Decode: Digital Design Sensations', which showed the latest developments in digital and interactive design; 'Shadowcatchers' , which presented the work of five international artists who challenged the notion that a camera is necessary to make a photograph; and 'Power of Making' that celebrated the role of making in our lives by presenting an eclectic selection of over 100 exquisitely crafted objects.
Room 48 is on Level 1 of the V&A South Kensington.
